Cali Laney is the neighbor girl who lives two doors down. When we moved into our home Cali was the same age as Gretta is now. Her birthday is Dec. 31st, Gretta's is Dec. 15th. Cali was a big help when I was Landscaping our yard. She would fitchtools and parts for me. They had fun on the tricycle. Love, Captain Jack

Little Gretta Visits Boise
We enjoyed having Gretchen, Gretta and Baby Eliza visit us in Boise. We had a 96th Birthday Party for Gretta Huff that everyone attended.
On Saturday Mary Ann Tueller hosted a baby shower for Anna. Anna's expecting a baby boy in early August. Everyone is looking forward to a big reunion in October in Minnesota.
Love, Captain Jack

Newport Beach Trip March 14-21
One of our activities while on the CA coast was to go Whale Watching on a boat out of Dana Pt. Harbor.
We saw whales, dolphins, and sea lions. You know how I knew it was a sea lion? I could see it, and I'm not lying, therefore it must have been a sea lion!
I was surprised at the number of Gray Whales we saw. At least 4. We got within 50 yards. Gray whales migrate from the Sea of Cortez (Mexico) to Alaska. The whales we saw where headed north for the summer. I'll have to say hello to them when I'm fishing in Alaska this July!

Jelly Bean Theory
Years back I noticed that all car designers where making the corners of their designs rounded. Hence, my jelly bean theory that shortly you won't be able to distingush between a honda and a jaguar. Have you seen a new Jag? Minus the hood ornement to me it looks just like a Toyota Corrolla. Everything looking similiar.
I think we're witnessing the same event in the presidential race. What's the difference between Hillary and McCain. I don't see much.
I ran across a writer from the Rocky Mtn. news. Paul Campos. Here's his quote regarding McCain. "All this would be merely amusing if McCain were not a genuinely tragic figure. The young man who showed so much courage in the face of his North Vietnamese tormentors has become an old man whose courage abandoned him when subjected to the more subtle tortures of worldly ambition."
Whether it's Feingold/McCain, Kennedy/McCain, the Keating 5 I just don't see core values. He was dead wrong on imigration. Without licking his finger and holding it in the wind where would he lead us?
